15 years ago today....

Madison Rose was born....when she was little she would always ask, 'Tell me the story of when I was born" Do your kids do this, do they still ask now? Well at 15 she doesn't ask anymore to tell me the story, but she has heard it so many times she still remembers "her" story. It was a hard back-aching labor, they ended up taking her by C-section. Her father said when she came out of my belly, "She was the most beautiful baby he had ever seen!". He was so proud of her and loved her immediately. She loved hearing that when she was little. I was delirious as 24 hour plus labor does to a woman. It was a hard road for me after the delivery, as I got the "baby blues" real bad, I wanted her with all my heart so I was surprised I would ever have those feelings. I don't like to tell sad stories on here, but I'm being comepletely honest but lets move on to the "happy" stuff, the proud and happy moments of parents.

Today she officially has become a young lady, a young lady that I and her father are so proud of. The sensitive character of her nature. Her hardworking as she stives toward a goal, be it making the Varsity Team for Soccer and now making the Varsity Volleyball team her Sophomore year. She continues to keep her grades high with great G.P.A. As I look back in time, she has grown so much from the shy, 6 year old she was to a girl who speaks up when the need arrises {defending her friend or fellow teammates}. Madison Rose....we celebrate you today as you turn 15!!
